The past half‐century has seen economic research become increasingly empirical, while the nature of empirical economic research has also changed. In the 1960s and 1970s, an empirical economist's typical mission was to "explain" economic variables like wages or GDP growth. Applied econometrics...

In this paper, we run regression analyses to explain voluntary turnover intentions with data from more than 5,000 employees and with about 250 explanatory variables. The findings of our multi-factor approach highlight the fact that previous empirical research might have over-estimated the impact...

Experimental economists increasingly apply econometric techniques to interpret their data, as suggests the emergence of "experimetrics" in the 2000s. Yet statistics remains a minor topic in historical and methodological writings on experimental economics (EE). This article aims to address this...

This paper studies the adoption of high-cost, medium-cost, and low-cost ener-gy-efficient technologies (EETs) by income categories across eight European Union countries. The statistical-econometric analyses allow the effects of in-come to differ by income quartiles and across countries. They...

This paper presents the analysis of the results of the National Program for Professional Qualification - PNQ in Piracicaba/Sao Paulo - Brazil. It analyzed the impact of PNQ on the income of workers. The Theory of Human Capital is presented as a suitable theoretical basis. We used econometric...

This research article was championed as a way of providing discourses pertaining to the concept of "Critical Realism (CR)" approach, which is amongst many othe forms of competing postmodern philosophical concepts for the engagement of dialogical discourses in the area of established econometric...

Best known as a monetary economist and prominent proponent of monetarism, Karl Brunner was deeply knowledgeable about the philosophy of science and attempted to explicitly integrate logical empiricist thinking, derived in some measure from his engagement with the work of the philosopher Hans...

The aim of this study is to determine the cost efficiency of thrift banks in the Philippines. Data were taken from the financial statements of thrift banks in the Central Bank of the Philippines from 2013 to 2016. In deriving cost efficiency, the inputs used were total liability, net of real and...

The main thrust of this research is to measure the relative technical efficiency of the six (6) colleges of San Pedro College from school year 2004-2014. The technical efficiency of the academic units can be derived based on its ability to produce the optimum number of output (number of research...

Computation of Nash equilibria of bimatrix games is studied from the viewpoint of identifying polynomially solvable cases with special attention paid to symmetric random games. An experiment is conducted on a sample of 500 randomly generated symmetric games with matrix size 12 and 15....

The informal economy is a phenomenon that affects most of the countries of the world, mainly tax collection potential, the generation of formal employment, productivity and business efficiency. In order to elaborate an inclusive method of the most significant current contributions, an...

In this paper sharing the cost of emission in supply chains are considered. We focus on allocation problems that can be described by rooted trees, called cost-tree problems, and on the induced transferable utility cooperative games, called upstream responsibility games (Gopalakrishnan et al.,...

Production to order and production in advance have been compared in many frameworks. In this paper we investigate a production in advance version of the capacityconstrained Bertrand-Edgeworth mixed duopoly game and determine the solution of the respective timing game. We show that a...

A growing body of evidence suggests a link between climate and conflict. In contrast, the link between climate and cooperation remains much less investigated, although it has been studied in the context of transboundary river basins. Even for transboundary waters, however, earlier results have...

We consider von Neumann-Morgenstern stable sets in assignment games. In the symmetric case Shapley (1959) proved some necessary conditions of vNM stability. In this paper we generalize this result for any assignment game. We show that a V set of imputation is stable if and only if (i) is...

In this research, a taxonomy of known electricity demand forecasting techniques is presented based on extensive empirical studies. In addition, a decision strategy for selecting an electricity demand forecasting method has been presented. The strategy has been formulated based on an eight-factor...

Factor analysis is often applied in empirical data analysis to explore data structures. Due to its theoretical construction, factor analysis is suitable for the study of linear relationships, and adequacy of a factor analysis solution is often assessed with linear correlation related measures....

Improved patient care coordination is critical for achieving better health outcome measures at reduced cost. Better integration of primary and secondary care in chronic illness care and utilizing the advantages of better collaboration between general practitioners and specialists may support...

This work is devoted to statistical methods for the analysis of economic data with a large number of variables. The authors present a review of references documenting that such data are more and more commonly available in various theoretical and applied economic problems and their analysis can...

Water is a multidimensional issue, involving water availability, access to freshwater, spatial and temporal distribution of resources, competition among its uses, ecosystems conservation, climate-related disasters and risks and several other aspects. The water security approach manages such...
